Root [ROM] MeanBean | Mods | Batt saver

It is based on the latest OTA update. And you do have to flash the new firmware before flashing this. Don't worry, you'll still be able to flash ICS ROMs with the new firmware. But for the love God DO NOT ever downgrade your firmware. From what I've read, downgrading firmware = bricked phone.

I'd try and redownload the Rom again, then completely wipe and reflash.

Updated versions are coming so quick I've just wiped and installed 0.2 and 0.3 with the same reboots. On 0.3 it would get stuck on the boot animation. I was able to get in to recovery and restore to MeanROM ICS though so I'm good until things get perfected a bit more.

I ran .03 all day without problems. I didn't have great battery life but I had weak 3g and used it pretty extensively.

had a problem with Swiftkey force closing on me till last evening I just uninstalled it and loaded and set it up fresh from the market. Been working fine since then.

I think he was going to let .04 go out and get himself some rest and then a bunch of guys sent him logcats, and I'll bet he is wading through them to find fixes for the rom. The man is dedicated.

I read on meanrom ICS why he doesn't go for SVN but I can't remember why it was. I am just glad to have good wifi at home.
